Felt: Apple Activity

 

Felt Apple Activity

Your kids will enjoy this felt apple activity over and over throughout the year. My little guy loves the texture of felt and really enjoys playing with it so we have been working on lots of felt projects that you can check out over here.  If you are familiar with the rhyme 5 Little Monkeys you will love this one: ~Chant to Five Little Monkeys~ Five little apples hanging in a tree, Teasing Mr. Slinky worm can’t eat me, Along comes Mr. Slinky worm quiet as can be… and…CRUNCH! Sing with 4,3,2,1,0 You will need to trace 5 apples onto felt and make a small hole in each of them so Mr. Worm can go through each one as he crunches on them.  To make the worm you will need to roll up some green felt and hand sew a quick stitch on the side of it and glue eyes with piece of black felt or googly eyes.

There are so many wonderful uses for felt.   Here are just a few that some other Quirky Mommas have found:

• Early Learning: Animal Alphabet Cards – Customize these cute cards any way you like.   What a fun way to learn the alphabet!
• Felt Board: How to Create Your Own – An easy way to make your own felt board for storytelling or just playing the shapes and colors.
• Bean Bag Hunt Game –   Make your own no-sew bean bags then let your kids go on a hunt to find them.
